Hi Matt

I'm using 0.01 / 1000 USD balance with NbTradeMax = 3.

I recommend to start lower and then update to 0.01/1000$ after some profits in balance or in secured equity (with SL)

cheers

The option is already there... "UseFixedLot" set it to risk 0.00004 of your balance, (or 0.01 lots). ;)

Have fun!

anyone else noticed big change in USD affecting Marilyn trades? USDCHF specifically.

Now, ... to weather the storm or cut off those reversing trades early before they get even worse? :) Only time will tell!

Crystal ball time.

Correction, marylin closed the USDCAD trades that had reversed.

The USDCHF and EURUSD are still open

Hi BD

Marilyn is a daily strategy, so you need to wait the D1 close to see action, except for SL MAX which is intraday. Otherwise, 3 MACD in reverse way + negative profit = close trade.

That was the biggest reverse USD since long time ! ;)

cheers
